Hotel recommendations please?

[jenniabc]

Single mum, 2 kids age 9 & 13 - help me find a hotel please!

Long list of criteria but can be flexible!

#Within 3hr flight of UK (so I'm thinking south or Spain, or the Algarve)

#4 nights (hence wanting short flight)

#End of April (but want it to be as warm as possible!)

#within walking distance of beach, shops and restaurants (and a marina?)

#Must have a pool (a heated outdoor pool would be a huge bonus!)

#Don't mind what board basis, I'm finding a lot of the all inclusives are a bit isolated so doesn't have to be AI.

#Prefer 4 or 5*

#Don't need a kids club, but would like things like air hockey/pool table etc to keep the kids entertained for 5 mins.

Please hit me with your hotel recommendations

What's your budget OP?

About £2500 absolute max for the 4 nights (incl. flights and accommodation). Less would be good!

Would you consider self catering like Eurocamp maybe? I remember the cost of that being really low fairly recently (in the past few years) and there is lots to do on some of the campsites. You may need to hire a car or drive though

Tivoli Marina Hotel in Vilamoura, Portugal has everything you are looking for:

Marina and beach
loads of excellent restaurants in walking distance
5 star
£2,100 with Jet 2 at end of April
